Please don't make assumptions. The fact that the office has no opinion at this time about the article does not earn it a magic "Seal of Approval". It still must qualify based on English Wikipedia standards, and, from what I've seen, it fails those.
I think, in fact, that the office (and thus WMF) has no opinion at this time means only that in the opinion of their legal counsel, no actions need to be taken to limit the Foundation's legal exposure.
My own personal take is that the only notable thing about this person is that they are listed among the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association's "20 worst agents".
IF a Wikipedia article is to exist on this person at all, it should certainly mention that ... distinction ... and I don't see anything wrong with quoting the SFWA on the matter - in fact, better to have it in their own words than ours.
On the other hand, is it enough for an article? Quite possibly not.
